The BJP’s Central Election Committee is expected to meet on Saturday and Sunday to finalise its candidates for the upcoming state elections, with the party looking to conclude much of its deliberations on the contestants before the poll process formally begins.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah and several other Union ministers, besides party chief JP Nadda, are among the members of the apex committee that takes the final call on the candidates.
Rajasthan is likely to figure for the first time in this third Central Election Committee (CEC) meeting related to the polls in five states, sources said.
